As expected

As expected, still well maintained. Nice and clean. Breakfast ordinary but included. I found the bed smaller than regular queen size and toilet.. I am a 5'5 and my husband 5'8 and yet everything was very low. This hotel would accomodate very well small people.

We were booked at another hotel for a wedding but days before the event we read the reviews of the other place and realized we needed to make a shift. We were lucky to catch the last of the few remaining rooms. Staff are very friendly, place is very clean. Pool is located at the back of the property providing a nice quiet spot to enjoy the outdoors. We walked along the canal and locks. Bed was firm but comfortable. We were worried about a ground floor room on the roadside of the hotel but it was not noisy in the room. Great stay

Needs an overhaul, old and tired and expensive.

Rooms and furniture need a renovation. It is shabby and old. Bed was making all kind of noises and mattress was worn out and uncomfortable. Highlight was the breakfast and they keep the breakfast area immaculate.
